Merger of three parallel pipe flows into a channel with perpendicular injections at medium Reynolds number

Merger of three parallel pipe flows into a channel at medium Reynolds number. The inflows through the left inlets have the same parabolic profile and size 1 while the flow from the small perpendicular inlets has order 2. The resulting flow is nonsteady and highly nonsymmetric. This simulation has to be compared with the similar ones in the Album, including lower Reynolds numbers and different types of inflows.

• Distribution of temperature/concentration via Boussinesq model
  
  

  Visualization via tracing of concentration, starting from the inlet, shaded (first and second as a zoom, 1.3 and 0.8 MB) and via isolines (third, 4.6 MB). The color red means `value of concentration +1' while blue stands for 'value of concentration -1'. The concentration coming from the perpendicular inlets has size 0.5.
